Objective] To summarize national famous doctor of traditional Chinese medicine-Wu Liangcun ’s experience about the clinical treatment of ovarian cancer. [Method] By studying and following Professor Wu Liangcun to diagnose, this paper discusses Professor Wu ’s academic views and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer respectively from the aspects such as etiology and pathogenesis, and treatment based on syndrome differentiation. It expounds the characteristics of his prescription and also gives proven cases. [Result]Professor Wu Liangcun proposes that the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer is mainly congenital deficiency and physical weakness resulted from cold coagulation, qi stagnation, blood stasis and phlegmatic hygrosis. All these remain a standstill, gather together and become a disease. He uses the syndrome differentiation method to divide the common ovarian cancer into four types:blood stasis and vital energy retardation, phlegm dampness condensation, deficiency of liver-yin and kidney-yin, asthenia of qi and blood. In the treatment, he organically combines the dialectics and the differentiation of disease; In the selection of drugs, he streamlines the prescription and the drug, which maximizes the efforts of the drugs and has good efforts in clinic.[Conclusion] Professor Wu Liangcun is good at making a diagnosis and giving treatment of ovarian cancer in combination with disease and syndrome, and he uses medicine flexibly. It has a very good effect and practical value for guiding clinic, and it should be promoted.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies have found that stem cels can directly differentiate into mature myocardial cels or promote their regeneration, providing a new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of myocardial infarction. However, the low cel transplantation rate reduces the myocardial differentiation ability and myocardial repair.
OBJECTIVE: To study the role of heat shock treatment in Sca-1+ cel transplantation for treatment of myocardial infarction in mice.
METHODS:Sca-1+ cels were isolated from the bone marrow of mice using magnetic bead sorting method, and were subjected to heat shock treatment. Animal models of myocardial infarction were made in mice, and then randomized into two groups: heat shock group and non-heat shock group, which were given 1 mL heat shock-treated Sca-1+ cels and 1 mL non-heat shock-treated Sca-1+ celsvia the tail vein, respectively. After transplantation, cel survival, heart function, myocardial cel apoptosis and myocardial fibrosis were detected. Meanwhile, the expressions of heat shock factor (HSP), HSP70 and miR-34a in the left ventricle were measured.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The expression of sry gene in the heat shock group was significantly higher than that in the non-heat shock group. (2) The left ventricular ejection fraction and fractional shortening in the heat shock group were significantly higher than those in the non-heat shock group. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and systolic diameter in the heat shock group were significantly lower than those in the non-heat shock group. (3) The cardiac fibrosis and myocardial cel apoptosis in the heat shock group were significantly lower than those in the non-heat shock group. (4) The HSF and HSP70 expression in the left ventricle was significantly higher in the heat shock group than the non-heat shock group, and the miR-34a expression in the left ventricle was significantly lower in the heat shock group than the non-heat shock group. These findings indicate that heat shock-treated Sca-1+ cel transplantation can reduce myocardial apoptosis and infarct size, and improve heart function of mice with myocardial infarction.

Objective:To explore the correlation among childhood trauma, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and implicit and explicit memory in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD).Methods:Fifty-two OCD patients were enrolled, and the childhood trauma was investigated by using the childhood trauma questionnaire short-form(CTQ-SF). The degree of obsessive-compulsive symptoms was assessed by using the Yale-Brown obsessive symptoms scale (Y-BOCS). In addition, the abilities of implicit memory and explicit memory were tested by vocabulary perception speed tasks and vocabulary recognition tasks.According to the scores of CTQ-SF, the patients were divided into abuse group( n=26) and neglect group( n=26). SPSS 22.0 software was used for t-test and Pearson correlation analysis. Results:Results of obsessive-compulsive symptoms, implicit memory, and explicit memory showed no differences between the abuse group and the neglect group( t=-1.959-1.839, P>0.05). The scores of obsessions symptoms(12.52±4.61) were positively correlated with the total scores of CTQ-SF (40.10±10.20)( r=0.331, P<0.05). On the subscale, the scores of obsessions were positively correlated with the scores of physical abuse(7.89±3.02), sexual abuse(6.47±2.28)( r=0.373, P<0.01, r=0.356, P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between the scores of physical abuse and the accuracy of explicit memory(68.75±13.33)( r=-0.281, P<0.05). The scores of physical neglect(8.98±2.67) was positively correlated with implicit memory response time(4 285.94±2 067.42)( r=0.314, P<0.05). Conclusion:Obsessions in patients with OCD are related to traumatic childhood experiences, especially physical abuse and sexual abuse.Physical trauma may influence the level of implicit and explicit memory in patients with OCD.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and molecular characteristics of bacteremia caused by K. pneumoniae and study on the differences between classical and hypervirulent K. pneumonia( hvKP) . Methods The clinical features of 70 cases of K. pneumoniae bacteremia collected from Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from 2008 to 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were identified according to the records from the Clinical Microbiology Department. Patients′ data were obtained from medical records. The molecular characteristics of the K. pneumoniae strains were also studied using PCR, multilocus sequence typing and pulsed field gel electrophoresis( PFGE) methods. Data were analyzed using the statistical package SPSS for windows version 17. 0. For categorical data, different groups were compared using the Chi-square test to analyze the quantitative variables. P≤0. 05 was considered to be statistically significant. All susceptibility data were analyzed using Whonet, version 5. 6. Results The hvKP was identified from 31. 4% of the patients with K. pneumoniae bacteremia, which displayed 4 serotypes ( K1, K2, K20, and K57). About 40. 9% (9/22) hypervirulent strains were isolated from patients without underlying diseases, while 95. 8% (46/48) of the classic K. pneumoniae infections were found in patients with the presence of one or more underlying diseases. More hvKP positive patients (95. 5%, 21/22) had community-acquired infections compared with classical K. pneumonia (cKP) infected patients (35. 4%, 17/48). There was a significant difference between these two groups (χ2 =21. 912,P <0. 001). Two ESBLs-producing hvKP strains were found. The 22 hvKP isolates had 14 different PFGE patterns, among which 6 isolates ( patients with primary liver abscess) shared similar PFGE patterns. Conclusions The
emerging hvKP was prevalent in patients with severe community-acquired infections in healthy individuals. Two ESBLs-producing hvKP strains were identified. Drug resistance had a rising trend, which called for more attention in clinical settings.
